A massive rush of passengers, mostly Amarnath yatris and tourists, is being witnessed at the Srinagar airport after the government asked them to leave Kashmir immediately in view of security threats.
Panic-stricken yatris and tourists were seen jostling and breaking queues outside the airport to take the first flight home.
Standing outside in large groups, the passengers were eagerly awaiting a word from the airport authorities to lift them from Kashmir. The link road at the arrival point of the airport was dotted with bags of tourists.
